Home Office plans to spy on your social network conversations

Home Office defends plan to monitor social network conversations

As always I would like to remind folks that infact there is something you can do about this. Simply google for social movements and campaigns in opposition to these orwellian policies and sign up (e.g. Avaaz, 28 Degrees, Amnesty International and so forth). Share your links to the sites for specific campaigns on your social networking facility of choice. This stuff works!
